A Stone's Throw Away
Some say it’s only a stone’s throw away
Into the blinders of a new generation Where he walked into abyss And was cut into ribbons Standing with a wrist in the air Protected by sanity Beholding pride and greed I want him to see himself And see what he has become It’s closer than a stone’s throw away It’s right in front of him He can see it But he can’t see himself You can stop crying And punch a hole in the wall To see that he’s crazy Just like me I am by no means a saint But at least I can walk a straight line And pass a sobriety test Somewhere new to him He says he’ll run away And I don’t give a damn I only want to see him try To make it on his own And I only want to see him function In a world that makes sense to me But he’s been blinded by the drink And I really want to see him bleed Because that’s what he’s doing to my head I really want to see him bleed And he won’t let me This is the infinitesimal continuum It never ends And I really don’t want him to walk away Without a scar on his face And I can’t help but smile When I see him stumble I’m unable to dream of anything else He’s gone crazy And I don’t care what he has to say Everyone knows about him He’s in the blinders Ready to get hit And it’s less than a stone’s throw away I wrote this in a trance of anger Rate this Poem | More Poetry | Favorites
